Space - Pam Tillis

I’m stuck in a concrete canyon traffic jam

Can’t part the red light sea

I set sail on this asphalt river

Five o’clock rush hour, no one’s gettin' anywhere

Staring at a billboard of the American dream

I need space;

stand back and let me breathe

I need air washing over me

I need time to see, to feel, to be

I can love you more when I’m free

Like a star, like an ocean, like the branches on a tree

Like a crown, like a rocket, like an eagle, what I need is: space

Space

Well your heart wraps around me like fingers holding tight

And you call it love

I fell for a wind chasin' cowboy

The sky was wide open, you said we were going for it

Promised me no fences;

this one went up

I need space;

stand back and let me breathe

I need air washing over me

I need time to see, to feel, to be

I can love you more when I’m free

Like a star, like an ocean, like the branches on a tree

Like a crown, like a rocket, like an eagle, what I need is: space

Space

Alone makes me wanna be with you

All I want is a chance to miss you

I need space;

stand back and let me breathe

I need air washing over me

I need time to see, to feel, to be

I can love you more when I’m free

Like a star, like an ocean, like the branches on a tree

Like a crown, like a rocket, like an eagle, what I need

Like a prayer, like a motion, like a crashing water fall

Like a ship, like a secret, like a herd, all I need is: space

Space

Stand back and let me breathe

Oh I need space
